Women’s Psychological Health During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Journal Title: Women's Health Science Journal - Year 2021, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
As coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has continued to impact societies for more than one year, everyone has been influenced by the negative impact of COVID-19 [1,2]. Patterns of daily life have considerably changed. Additionally, there are diverse populations who are at higher risk of negative effects of COVID-19. Generally, there is a large body of research showing that women are at increased risk of some mental health problems compared to men, such as depression and anxiety [3]. Given that the possibility of suffering from mental health problems has increased since COVID-19 [4], women might be at even more of a risk of experiencing poor psychological health.
